WARNING!
A standard grass trimmer with a loop handle should NEVER be
operated with blade-type attachments. For blade use the trimmer must be
tted with a bicycle-type handlebar or a barrier bar that is located in front of
the operator to reduce the risk of the operator from coming in contact with
the cutting attachment (per ANSI B175.3). When using a blade, the unit must
also be equipped with a harness or strap.
The unit should now be
completely assembled and
ready for use with a trimmer
head.
